The New Girl In The City

Shiny was the sea, reflecting back the Sun,
Shouts of the vendors and noises of the people,
People and People, people were all around,
Amidst of all that, there was that sound.
She longed for long and she was here,
All the noises, as if were musical chants
Smiled to everybody and smiled when they laughed.
Came alone in the big city, to conquer it or loose herself.
Igniting the dead world around with her alacrity
The New Girl In The City.






The rendezvous was much like a deza vu.
She smiled and I listened.
She talked and I watched her.
I lived it a night before.
Except she wasn't this pretty and it was a dream.
But she was here to win all the dreams with her ability.
The New Girl In The City







It isn't my story.
She belongs here and she was here.
No Shoes to fill in, only wings to fly away.
Scared a little inside,afraid to loose herself.
but mistakes were apparently better than regrets.
People and people, People were all around.
Amidst that she was alone, seeking herself to be found.
I met her the first time and now i am writing
Stranger was she but still somehow i got this affinity,
The New Girl In The City.


PS: The imaginery place is Marine Drive, Mumbai.
